Congrats on the new pedes! The baby pedes are very, very mositure dependent and can dry out very easy. I have had very good luck raising babies as long as you keep them moist and take out any uneaten food asap to prevent mold. I also suggest adding some dwarf isopods to your mosit cages to help with cleaning. Good luck!!

Nice additions!

The S. multidens are totally insane. Mine has to be amongst the most aggressive of my collection.

I love the way pedelings look! So colorful to say the least!
